I’m basically a nobody in the trumpet section. I like it that way. I hate being in front of people. I think I’m too nervous, or anxious, or something. The only time I ever played a solo was that time during concert band that I accidentally played during a rest. The whole band was silent and I honked out a right note at the wrong time. I was so embarrassed that I wanted to hide in my band locker. - Rigby Raines . R.K. Slade

- Rigby Raines is a quote from the movie, School of Rock . In the movie, Rigby is a shy trumpet player who can not join the school's marching band because he is too nervous to perform in front of people. He hates performing and would rather hide away from all eyes.

When he finally does get a chance to play a solo, his playing is shaky and he embarrasses himself even more by blowing an incorrect note at the wrong time.
